What is Ikigai ?

Originating from Japan, Ikigai is a philosophy. The word comes from « iki », meaning to be alive, and « gai », meaning what is worth living for.

This concept was developed in Okinawa, a region known for having one of the highest populations of healthy centenarians. Ikigai refers to having a sense of purpose, feeling motivated, experiencing fulfillment and contribution, while being aligned with your skills, what you enjoy, your strengths and your values.

This powerful approach helps you clarify what truly drives you and better understand where you fit. Being supported means turning this reflection into a concrete path forward, so you can move ahead with confidence and alignment.

Exploring your Ikigai

In this workshop, the main objective is to help you better understand yourself and move forward in a concrete way.

I support you based on your reality, your aspirations and your questions, with a structured and accessible approach.

Through guided exercises, reflection time and discussions, you identify what truly fits you and explore practical activity options that you can test to move forward.

For individuals exploring their professional direction

→ In a phase of questioning or transition
→ Seeking better professional alignment
→ Wanting to better understand yourself and grow
→ Curious to explore what truly motivates you
→ Needing to take a step back and structure what comes next

Two formats, one approach

The Ikigai approach can be experienced in two complementary ways, depending on your needs and your current situation. Through exercises, reflection time and discussions, you move forward step by step to better understand what matters to you and structure concrete paths for change.

A shared experience in a small group, combining guided exercises, introspection and discussions to explore what drives you and benefit from different perspectives.
Workshops take place over half a day or a full day, in a confidential and supportive environment.

1. Group workshop

A more in-depth process over several sessions to clarify your direction, deepen your reflections and turn your insights into concrete actions.
The coaching typically takes place over 6 to 8 sessions, tailored to your pace.

2. Individual coaching

A simple, dynamic and pragmatic framework

Whether in a group workshop or individual coaching, the Ikigai approach offers a structured framework that supports reflection and decision-making. This space allows you to step back, better understand your situation and identify concrete next steps.

In a group setting, discussions and shared perspectives enrich the reflection.
In individual coaching, the work allows you to go deeper and explore further.

You leave with clear insights, concrete directions and a defined path forward.

Expertise to support your development

After more than twenty years working within large international organizations, particularly in the industrial and pharmaceutical sectors, I created SYKIA Consulting to offer a more independent, personalized approach, fully aligned with my values.

Throughout my career, I have supported transformations, leadership transitions and career paths in demanding environments. These experiences have strengthened my belief that moments of transition are valuable opportunities, when supported in the right way.

Today, I leverage this experience to help you step back, clarify your choices and move forward with clarity and confidence, relying on concrete and actionable insights.
